Yes. The current Russian government came into existence in 1990-1991.

Or nation dates to 1776.

If Russia was founded 1106 then we can trace our origins to 1066.

Makes sense, the Founding Fathers viewed themselves as British, but the Crown did not adhere to British Legal Tradition.

Therefore we date back to the 11th century.

(We are the second oldest representative Republic after Iceland, with their parliament being established in 930. Kind of odd how these things originated from European culture, somehow as if “democracy” was invented in the West. Odd.)

Democracy as in rule of the demons ie people was also there among hunter gatherers, in northern India states .

Just like Athenian democracy or phoenician or roman, these were Oligarchies not democracy. The elite ruled, not the common man.

The common, not land owning mass only got tye votes in the west in the late 1700s to 1800s
